Michael Jackson's medical history is starting to unfold in pill form.
Los Angeles County Coroner's officials have confiscated various prescription drugs from the entertainer's rented Holmby Hills mansion, Chief Investigator Craig Harvey told reporters Monday afternoon.
A team from the medical examiner's office, including a photographer and Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter had been spotted going inside around noon, as the second autopsy requested by Jackson's family got underway downtown.
The investigators emerged from the residence toting two large plastic bags, declining to mention any specifics of what they found or where.
The initial autopsy performed Friday was ruled inconclusive pending the results of toxicology tests.
While fans and family alike won't know for sure what caused Jackson's sudden heart failure, the star's longtime friend, Dr. Deepak Chopra, has little doubt that drug use may have come into play.
